WHO WE ARE
Nova Shipyard is a specialized commercial workboat shipyard based in Tuzla, Istanbul. We design and build robust, reliable, and high-performing workboats engineered to meet strict operational requirements without compromise on quality, safety, or delivery discipline.
HOW WE BUILD
Concept Design
Project requirements analysis and concept design development.
Detail Engineering
Structural calculations, systems integration, and production drawing preparation.
Production
Cutting, welding, assembly, and painting carried out to approved procedures and classification requirements.
Delivery
Sea trials, class approvals, and vessel handover to the owner.
Built Around Operational Requirements
Every workboat is defined by mission profile, operating conditions, regulatory obligations, and owner expectations. Nova Shipyard is structured to understand these requirements precisely, translate them into engineered solutions, and deliver vessels that perform as promised at sea, in service, over time.
Engineering-Led Customization and Delivery
We are recognized for custom builds supported by disciplined project management. Our teams work with clients throughout the build, managing scope, quality, and schedule with clarity and transparency particularly when specifications require detailed interpretation and operational input. We take pride in delivering vessels on challenging timelines and meeting our commitments with consistency.
Aluminium Expertise for Lightweight Performance
Nova Shipyard has deep expertise in aluminium workboats, where lightweight construction and performance targets demand strict engineering control. For weight- and speed-critical projects, we apply disciplined weight management to achieve the required displacement targets. For high-speed vessels, we support performance with the necessary hydrodynamic assessments ensuring results align with the commitments made from concept through delivery. In parallel, we deliver strong results in steel and stainless steel applications, supported by qualified fabrication and welding procedures.
Future-Ready Propulsion Solutions
Nova Shipyard develops and applies propulsion solutions aligned with modern operational and environmental expectations, including full-electric, hybrid, and diesel-electric architectures. Our approach is practical and operator-focused:
- Mission-based energy engineering: duty cycles, peak loads, hotel loads, and operational constraints are defined early to size systems correctly.
- Integration and reliability: propulsion and power distribution are engineered for redundancy, maintainability, and operational resilience.
- Implementation readiness: for electric and hybrid projects, we assess charging philosophy and turnaround requirements to ensure the solution is practical for real operations.
- Future-proof thinking: propulsion selections are aligned with evolving efficiency and emissions expectations to support long-term fleet planning.
